The interview process is divided into 3 stages:
1) Psychometric Assessments
2) Interview with HR (1:1)

depending on the results of your HR interview 1 or more business units will reach out for an interview to see if you fit the team
I would recommend applying early (before June) because you may be invited to attend Future League Week where you learn more about working for FNB and the various Business Units. It is also a great opportunity to network.
